Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Lily Pinchin⁽⁵⁾| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 117| BF| C

7/2

Placed on first 3 starts this season. Ran as if amiss at Haydock in January but back on track since, finishing a close second (Flexi Furlough third) at Catterick under Lilly Pinchin 16 days ago.

Form: 232P42

Return Fire^t³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 108

5/1

Low-mileage 6-y-o who has been largely consistent since switching to this stable, finishing third of 12 in 22.5f handicap at Kelso last month. Can't be discounted.

Form: 323393

Wynford^p,t²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: R Menzies| OR: 104

6/1

Sprouted wings for this yard in 2021, taking Market Rasen handicap hurdle in July before landing 3 Flat wins. Off 4 months, might have just needed run when third at Catterick 24 days ago. Usual cheekpieces back on. Player for in-form stable.

Form: 60-4133

Liffeydale Dreamer^p,t¹⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 103

33/1

Scored at Cartmel last June. Creditable in-frame efforts on her next 3 starts but not seen since a lesser run here in November.

Form: 233436

Pammi^p¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Harry Reed| T: J S Goldie| OR: 101| C| D

50/1

Triple winner at Perth last summer. Recent efforts have lacked spark (remote fourth to Don Brocco latest) but she is back to a good mark. Fourth in this last year. Worth keeping an eye on in the betting.

Form: 648594

White Walker^t¹¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: K Brogan⁽³⁾| T: G Hanmer| OR: 101| BF

7/1

Has made a positive start for present stable, resuming winning ways at Catterick (25f) in November. Respectable fourth at Doncaster a week later. Freshened up since and yard continues in good form.

Form: 143414

Franks Fancy¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Alan Doyle⁽⁷⁾| T: C Grant| OR: 98| D

33/1

Kelso novice winner last season but has made no impact in handicaps over fences and hurdles this term. Has come down a good way in the weights as a result but has too much to prove.

Form: 4-34695

Goodtimes Badtimes^p,t1³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Ryan Mania| T: A M Thomson| OR: 97| BF

3/1

Opened his account at Ayr in January and good placed efforts on both starts since. Another prominent showing likely but his high head carriage under pressure is a bit off-putting for win purposes.

Form: 5-42132

Bullion Boss³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Sean Quinlan| T: N G Richards| OR: 95| CD

11/1

C&D winner last winter. Started this campaign with a trio of creditable in-frame efforts and might have been unsuited by heavy ground when pulled up latest.

Form: 56-434P

Akentrick²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 88

12/1

Has yet to build on his C&D handicap debut second in December but it is still very early days and Brian Hughes is back in the saddle for the first time this term. 3 lb out of handicap.

Form: 4424U5

Atomic Angel²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Craig Nichol| T: S Corbett| OR: 86| BF

16/1

Winner of staying handicap hurdles at Hexham and Sedgefield this winter. Respectable fourth at latter venue last time. 5 lb out of the handicap here so likely she'll come up a little short.

Forecasts

Goodtimes Badtimes (3/1), Moon King (7/2), Return Fire (5/1), Don Brocco (5/1), Wynford (6/1), White Walker (7/1), Flexi Furlough (10/1), Bullion Boss (11/1), Akentrick (12/1), Atomic Angel (16/1), Liffeydale Dreamer (33/1), Franks Fancy (33/1), Pammi (50/1)

The Rebecca Menzies stable continues to fire on all cylinders so it might be worth siding with WYNFORD to build on a sound comeback run at Catterick with his usual cheekpieces now back in place. Goodtimes Badtimes can look tricky under pressure but he arrives in good form and heads the dangers along with White Walker and Don Brocco.
